Quickest way is to put a photo up. if they were originally supplied by Westfield, they have the Westfield Sunburst logo cast into them, normally. However, if supplied direct via Hi Spec, or from another Hi Spec dealer, they are plain. (They may also have a slightly different steering arm).

I know 7 owners have had issue with proving seat strength in the past, but I'm not aware of any XI owners having the same problem. Make of that what you will! I've still got my IVA steering wheel with matching boss and centre pad. My rear number plate holder and lamps are still in the garage, although I snipped the fog and reversing lamps wires short after IVA when I fitted the new undermount lights, so they would need connectors adding. I don't think I have the body mounts any more, but they were simple aluminium strips bent yo suit the car. I'm not convinced my strips would fit anyone else's car..... I'm afraid I've no idea what i did woth my wing mirrors!

In the last few days the roads around my village have been shut for cat eye replacement they may as well have fitted paving blocks the new cat eyes are solid alloy and are 30 mm tall i drove over a couple in the westie and the jolt almost pulled the wheel out of my hands and hit them with the rear wheel and your out of the seat there ridiculous I can't imagine how cyclists and motorcycles are going to manage there's going to be an accident for sure.

Excuse my lack of knowledge but how do I tell if I have Westfield/HiSpec ali uprights? I know I have HiSpec front calipers of that's of any relevance? Are these brackets new or used?

The 7s have belt guides too.... do the seats need to have some kind of certificate of conformity regarding capability to take the load in event of accident or is it just they just have to be high backed?

Have a great day @SlimGym 🍺🎂

Do you know how much these brackets weigh? dave

Stunning looking car Nick, and a great price. I’m sure this won’t hang around for long. GLWTS

That's a shame that they don't. They'll be ok provided they are narrow enough, although the S Turbo seats also have belt guides that may or may not be relevant.

I have, they don't any more.... Will have to track a set down at some point unless the Cobra 7s in my SEiW would be ok...

No worries. We have a plan to get back lol

Sorry, I've already passed my IVA parts onto another owner a few months back. It's worth asking the factory if they now loan out Sport Turbo seats for the test.

At that time you should be ok but as the king has some gigs on at Sandringham over the weekend the traffic is mad..yep worse than normal for silly season.. Mariah Carey tonight.. 😀

That sounds suspiciously like a long list of get-out clauses to me

A friend used to own a shop, one of his more memorable cases was a destroyed engine due to cam belt failure. The belt was covered, but since the idler locked up, AND WAS EXCLUDED, the whole claim was denied A lot of shops hate them, simply for the aggravation of dealing with them

I'm out tomorrow, so unlikely to make Sunday, sorry. Have a great peaky blat all!

It's more the weasel words you need to check on T's and C's. They do there best to put everything down to wear and tear to avoid payout. e.g. Gearbox noises may be excluded as long as it works etc. They will only cover things that have stopped working so if a gearbox shaft snaps it will be covered buy synchro's, teeth grinding, noises etc will all be ducked!

Or a Toyota engine Lotus Marcus? Interesting. I've had warranties in the past and claimed no problem.
